Book description
Maurice, a streetwise tomcat, has the perfect money-making scam.
Everyone knows the stories about rats and pipers, and Maurice
has a stupid-looking kid with a pipe, and his very own plague of rats
- strangely educated rats . . .
But in Bad Blintz, the little con suddenly goes down the drain. For
someone there is playing a different tune and now the rats must
learn a new word.
EVIL.
It's not a game any more. It's a rat-eat-rat world. And that might
only be the start . . .
